I cannot fill this emptiness
No memories to remiss
How could I lose something that was already there?
How could emptiness leave a spot so bare?
What could have been,
what should have been,
Will never be
But you will always be apart of me
I dream of you behind hidden tears
I call your name, but nobody hears nor answers
Selfishly my heart receives an angered tug
At the thought of just one hug
How others don't realize or appreciate
That to hear a voice that you love, they don't have to wait
I would give anything, pay any fee
Just to see you standing next to me
To hear your voice, your laugh, and to ask you a question...
But this an empty confession
These dreams cannot come true
For you don't ever want to see me again
I can be strong and try to go on alone
An inner strength I have come to own
For without your warmth this world seems so cold and pointless
As my hart feels now
But I take life in stride and try to become bold
Though you are not here to comfort me with your presents
Through my life you still reflect
I will never hear your voice, nor feel your touch
I can try to accept this
but this love I have for you
Is impossible to ignore
